If I ever need to go deep into optimisation again, there is lots I can still learn from [Wayback/Archive] Software optimization resources. C++ and assembly. Windows, Linux, BSD, Mac OS X

Thanks [Archive] Kris on Twitter: “@Kharkerlake @unixtippse Agner Fog ist eigentlich ein Anthropologe, aber er reversed interne Strukturen von Intel CPUs, und …, speziell 3.

Like me, [Archive.is] Kristian Köhntopp is a nerd.

Unlike me, Kris bumped into character encoding issues for just about all his digital life. That started about the same time as mine, but again unlike me: he was way more involved in the technical aspects of it.
